Hi all!
I'm looking to build a reasonably quick Digital Audio Workstation for making music on
and I have come up with the following...
Approximate Purchase Date: ASAP
Budget Range: £ 400 - 600
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Music PC - sequencer and VSTi s
Parts Not Required: keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, OS
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: So far Amazon seems Competitive
Country: Great Britain
Parts Preferences: HDD - Western Digital; CPU - Intel i5
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080 minimum ( i5 has on-processor Intel HD 2000, I think )
Additional Comments: I would like a quiet PC
Here's a list of what I've come up with so far in an Amazon wish-list (seemed convenient!)
My New PC:

I will be getting Win 7 64 bit Home Premium.
Phew! I think that covers it!
If anyone would like to comment on these selections, suggest alternatives (and/or prices!)
and let me know if there are any other bits and pieces I will need to put it all together I would be extremely grateful.
eg are all the parts compatible, will the PSU be able to handle a 1GB graphics card in the near future, do I need any more fans &c &c.
Thanks in advance - Steveo.
